yup, that is for sure a grammodes and from the looks of it I'd say it's a male. very cool cichlid but extremely slow growers. they're often referred to as a "mini-dovii".

they're not that hard to find around here. there's 1 particular lfs in Indy that's had them every time I've visited within the last year or so.

It all depends on your location. I can't get any blue acaras here, and it took me forever to get 2 healthy firemouths.

Awesome. I originally thought that he was some type of dovii hybrid. He def. has the attitude of a dovii.

How big will he get?

Thanks guys.

I just did a quick read on these guys...they sound pretty cool.

Gets up to 13". That will be perfect. I was hoping he wasn't going to be getting up to 2 foot or something.
